A pungent nose combines notes of oak toast, menthol, sandalwood, spice elements as well as both blue and black pinot fruit. There is excellent richness to the wonderfully seductive medium weight flavors that coat the palate with dry extract before culminating in a dusty and well-balanced finish. This is very Vosne in basic character and while it's finer than the Nuits there isn't quite the same level of depth.
